Rubrik has launched SAGE (Semantic AI Governance Engine) at RSAC 2026, positioning it as the first real-time AI governance engine built to secure and control autonomous agents. SAGE powers Rubrik Agent Cloud and replaces rules-based oversight with a custom Small Language Model (SLM) that interprets natural language policies semantically. Key capabilities include Semantic Policy Interpretation, Adaptive Policy Improvement, and Integrated Remediation via Agent Rewind. Rubrik claims its SLM processes messages five times faster than OpenAI's GPT-5.2 with higher policy violation detection accuracy and lower compute overhead, targeting enterprises looking to scale AI agent deployments without sacrificing security controls.
